This is the video of James Nolastname and his father rescuing two deer stranded in the middle of Albert Lea Lake in Minnesota. How the deer managed to get that far out in the first place is beyond me. Apparently the father/son team managed to rescue three deer that day. And, after some rest, all three returned to the woods vowing to never again try to take another shortcut.

Hit the jump for the video.

Thanks to Lauran, cap and J3NN, who agree if you can't walk across it in the summer, don't risk it in the winter either.

I'd have been tempted to play the world's first ever deer curling match...

Oh, it was an ad. No wonder the dramatic music made me angry. As though this was the most noble thing ever caught on film.

Fuckers

this must have been much earlier in the winter because you can actually see the ice, now there is a shit ton of snow on top of the ice and that makes it traversable. -Sami from MinneSNOWta

It said three deer were rescued I only say two in the video so I am assuming the other one was off camera and they brought it on land therefore rescuing then and shot it because I mean they were hungry. Also wtf where is my hovercraft?!

The crap Go Pro camera probably quit before they got to the other one.

says its a video of them rescuing 2 deer, their total rescues for that day was 3...I really want to steal a hovercraft and become a pirate
